(Augusta, GA) -Each year EBONY Magazine does a feature on Historically Black College and University (HBCU) queens. Last year, EBONY Magazine's Top 10 HBCU Queens feature introduced a new online voting component and included a smaller-than-usual representation of elegantly displayed queens on the pages of EBONY Magazine. Although this year’s entire “HBCU Queens” feature will find a home on the Web site (ebony.com), they will again honor 10 only queens inside the September 2011 issue of the magazine.

Vote for Miss Paine College 2010-2011, Ms. Ciara Harris to appear inside the September 2011 issue. Your chance to vote for Miss Paine College will be during the week of May 23–29, 2011. ONLINE VOTING BEGINS AT MIDNIGHT (CT) ON MAY 23 AND ENDS AT 11:59 PM (CT) ON MAY 29. You can vote as many times as you like. Please encourage the Augusta community to cast their vote! Visit Ebony.com and cast your vote (s).
